According to Ayurveda, an ancient medical healing system of India, the first thing to know is that each of us is made up of a combination of energies, namely the three Doshas of Vata, Pitta and Kapha.
The second thing to know is that these energies have to stay balanced to remain in good health.
Ayurveda teachings are based upon an ancient system of maintenance and prevention of the whole person rather than waiting until we get sick and then treat the problem.
The Doshas
The Doshas of each person are made up of a combination of 5 elements: Space, Air, Earth, Fire and Water. That is Vata, air with space; Pitta, fire with water and; Kapha, water with earth.
These Doshas, just like external factors of wind, rain, heat , are susceptible to environmental forces. Whether we take notice of these subtle changes or not, they are going on in the body. For example, with the change of each season you will notice an increase in different illnesses, particularly the flu.
These subtle elements either balance or imbalance the Doshas causes states of wellness or disease.
How to Balance the Doshas
Ayurvedic medicine pays close attention to the factors that bring about balance of the Doshas. These include diet, digestion, qualities of the mind, lifestyle activities and elimination of build up of toxins in the body.

These three Doshas have different functions on the body. Pitta control the body’s metabolic system, Vata control the movement and function of the body, and Kapha is responsible for growth.
Holistic Healing
It’s believed that when these energies are maintained in a balanced state you experience good health. Ill health and disease are the result of energies being disturbed by states of stress, incorrect diet or unhealthy lifestyle activities, strained relationships.
The way through holistic healing to good health is following a personalised discipline that includes eliminating toxins, a correct diet, herbal medicine, massage, exercise, meditation, and balancing the mind to rebalance your Doshas.
According to the Ayurvedic perspective people are able to take charge of their own lives and their bodies ability to heal. Each person has a unique pattern of energy which is responsible for their mental, physical and emotional well being.
